well, i play mainly for the story, actually. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

i started over from the beginning yesterday. let's see what i can find this time.
there was one quite funny moment in the first time i played when i suddenly realised this:
my active party consisted of three homocidal women and a giant chicken. right. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

ever heard of the story of the keeper of the winds? it's in this game as well. the north wind has escaped from it's jar and you're sent out to catch it. how do you catch a wind? easy. grab it by the ears. WHAT KIND OF STINKING QUEST HINT IS THAT!? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
